Meet Mission Critical SLAs with Big Data

At the heart of data integration and ETL is the movement of information, and movement at the scale of Big Data can test your existing processes and systems. See how Hadoop can help to accelerate data integration, scale processing capabilities, and optimize slow or complex transformations.

All data is potentially valuable to your business, but its value density determines just how you manage and access that data. Discover how Hadoop complements your data warehouse by letting your choose the “right tool for the right job” and optimize your data economics and usage.

Delivering Improved Business Value with Big Data

One way to build value in your business is to look at how you use data to make better decisions and increase efficiency and productivity. Learn how you can use Hadoop to break down your data silos and promote the connections that bring greater visibility, insights, and analysis to all your data.

As Big Data becomes an integral element in your data management infrastructure, you need mature controls for governance, provisioning, automation, disaster recovery, and high-availability services. Find out how you can integrate and simplify the management of Big Data with Hadoop and address the needs of your sensitive information and compliance policies.

If you’re interested in Hadoop and its capabilities, but you are not sure where to begin, this is the session for you. Learn the basics of Hadoop, see how to spin up a development cluster in the cloud or on-premise, and start exploring ETL processing with SQL and other familiar tools.

Success with new technologies like Hadoop is more than just deploying software and infrastructure. Success also relies on building the right skills and business and technical mindsets to achieve maximum effect with the technology. Learn from experienced leaders, who have hard-earned knowledge from the trenches, the right way to build your team and your own project roadmap for Hadoop.

Working with Hadoop does not always mean starting from scratch. In this session, you’ll learn how to leverage your existing investments in tools and skills to accelerate your Hadoop development. Learn from experts as they walk you step-by-step through the conversion of an existing ETL process to use Big Data.
